Kapitel 281: Chapter 279: Jingshu Gives Birth

"There's no movement from inside. Neither I nor anyone knows what's going on. Mrs. Lai and your aunt are about to go in to have a look," Mrs. Liu said anxiously.

Upon hearing this, Xiao'er furrowed her brows: "I should probably check for myself."

"Absolutely not, a young maiden like you should never enter such a place. It's ill-omened!" Mrs. Liu held Xiao'er back, not letting her go in.

Both Mrs. Lai and Mrs. Tan agreed upon hearing this, "The young miss should not go in."

"I'm not scared. I suspect the birth hasn't started yet. I'll just take a quick look and come out. I have some medical knowledge and could lend some help." Xiao'er wasn't the type to fuss over such things. Moreover, lives were at stake—where was the room for hesitation?

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Liu reconsidered and stopped objecting.

"I'd like to go in too," Lai Zhewei said, unable to bear his anxiety after hearing Xiao'er.
